Initially receiving attention at Los Angeles' Screamfest, the small budget independent film entitled Paranormal Activity sat on the shelf for almost two years until Paramount Pictures took the reins and edited the film's conclusion.
Steven Spielberg is said to be a big fan of this film and reportedly had a hand in its final scene.
The movie is based around Katie and Micah. Katie and Micah are deeply in love with each other, even though they have some slight relationship porblems.
As the movie begins the couple is relocating to San Diego. Soon the couple realizes that there is something wrong in the their new home. They begin to believe that the home is haunted, and then Katie tells another story. A story of a poltergeist that may have have killed her sister in the past.
This idea does not seem realistic to Micah, so he devises a plan to get to the bottom of the occurences. With the help of his video camera he begins to record the home at night.
When Micah actually gets some very unsettling evidence on tape, he becomes convinced that there is a dark force present and increasingly antagonizes the ghost.
They decide it may be a good idea to enlist the help of a specialist. Unfortunately, the paranormal expert that came to the home said the ghost was to evil for him to help with.
Micah's antagonizing attitude toward the ghost persists, and he goes so far as to try to use a Ouija board to facilitate communication with the ghost. The film's action continues to increase to a startling and frightening crescendo.
The film represents a great deal of ingenuity, even if subdued, and is a great example of editorial economy that still manages to grip its audience for the duration of the story.
Overall I found Paranormal Activity very entertaining and quite scary at times. This is definitely a film worth seeing if you're in the mood to be scared.
